Noblesse Fanfic Part 12

[Rai kills Locktis]
Kate: Rai, was that really necessary?
Rai: Yes.
Kate: ….
Kate: Ok, what is your deal? Is there some rule I don't know about or something?
Rai: ?
Kate: Why do you keep insisting on dealing with the traitors yourself? Is it a vampire thing?
Rai [nods]: It is my duty as the Noblesse to deal with them.
Kate: ….
Kate: But… that's dumb….
Everyone: !
Frankenstein: Kate!!
Kate: But it is! What the fuck is the point of us trying to get stronger to help him if he's just going to insist on doing everything himself!!!
Everyone: … [she kind of has a point]
Kate: Rai, you're not alone anymore! You can rely on us to help you!
Kate [sighs]: I swear you immortals are going to drive me insane….
Kate: You say it's your duty? Well can’t you delegate it to us? We will kill them unless you tell us not to. How's that?
Rai: ……..
Rai: … I will… consider it.
Kate [shaking her head]: So, where's this Ignes?
Frankenstein: She escaped.
Kate: Are you fucking serious right now!?
Everyone: ….
Kate [takes a deep breath]: Alright. Fine. Just another name on my list of people I have to kill…..
[Explosion]
Kate: What the hell is that?
Rai: Muzaka?
Frankenstein: Muzaka! Here!?
Rai: I feel Muzaka’s energy.
Kate: So I don’t know who this Muzaka is, but I’m guessing that’s bad….
Frankenstein: Master I will…
Rai: No. It has to be me. Frankenstein, you and the others take care of the kids.
[Kate: Based on the energy I’m feeling only Rai would be a match for him. Shit…. ]
Kate: Rai!
[Rai turns]
Kate: Come back to us.
[Rai nods and takes off.]
Kate: Shit….
[Kate: I have no choice but to do as he says. I’d only get in the way.]
[Kate: Dammit! If he’d at least let us deal with Locktis before he’d be in better shape!]

[After Muzaka wakes up]
Kate: Frankenstein. I need you to tell me who Muzaka is.
Frankenstein: I don't think I have to tell you that.
Kate: No. You do. Because we'll probably run into him again.
[Frankenstein sighs: She has a point.]
Frankenstein: Muzaka is the former Lord of the Werewolves and he was master's friend.
Kate: So they're not friends anymore? What happened? And why did he look like he was completely out of his mind?
Frankenstein: Muzaka had a daughter named Ashleen. She was a daughter he had with a human. That sort of thing was taboo so he kept her hidden. But she was killed by humans and he lost his mind to grief. Then he tried to kill all the humans and master stopped him. That's why master ended up in such a deep sleep. I thought Muzaka had died as well but it seems he is alive.
Kate: He wanted to kill all the humans? Not just the ones responsible for her death?
Frankenstein: Yes.
Kate: And does he still want that? If we run into him will he try to kill all of us?
Frankenstein [sighs]: I don't know.
Kate: I don't understand. Didn't he have anyone else?
Frankenstein: What do you mean?
Kate: Was Ashleen really the only one he cared about? You said he was the Lord of the Werewolves, didn't he care about any of them? And Rai was his friend.
Frankenstein: There was one that he was close to. A Werewolf named Garda. She followed him often. And he did care about the Werewolves but he never wanted to be their Lord. He was forced into it because he was the strongest.
Kate: That's stupid. Why didn't he just quit?
Frankenstein: I asked him that as well. And he did try, but it didn't work out.
Kate: I see.
Kate [sighs]: How complicated. Poor Rai.
